An idiomatic Title+Subtitle slide layout for a presentation-title slide

It is extremely common for presentations to begin with a slide which has some
sort of title, taking up a significant part of the slide (e.g. upper half or
more), and a subtitle which takes up some space below it. See the attached
image for an illustration of this layout.

This kind of layout is available in MS Powerpoint, and likely elsewhere.
However - we can't introduce it right now. The reason is explained in comment
164840#c3 by Regina: The interaction in LO of Master slides and Layouts is a
bit of a mess; and since every slide has a master, and the master corresponds
well just to the title-and-content layout, the only thing we can have is a
title element that's in the same size and position as in title-and-content (the
one we use in the body of a presentation).

To resolve this, we need a resolution of bug 62332 and perhaps OASIS issue
OFFICE-4127. Then we would either have two (or more) default masters
corresponding to different layouts, or some other arrangment enabling a
presentation-title slide to have a master+layout combination that looks like
the attachment.
